The Girl's Guide to Depravity

Most of the reviews posted only reflect the first few episodes of this two year series. I just binge watched both seasons.

Mildly amusing and sometimes very funny. The plot and the "rules" were enough to keep me interested. The sex scenes were all built on the same formula. They were somewhat unrealistic and soon became boring.

What surprised me was that Rebecca Blumhagen's (Sam) career did not take off after this series. She is very cute and projected well in the role. She seems to have become mired in shorts, minor TV roles and B movies ... too bad.

Worth watching and I hope that Rebecca finds a vehicle to move her career to a new level.

Ladies & Gentleman the truth's all here, the rule system the girls of "Depravity" use aren't for everybody. And, certainly not the weak! But they're relevant when tackling modern social issues in today's dating game. "Depravity's" Sam & Lizzie represent today's women, there's no denying they are specifically of this era! Wannabe's at home, if you're still going around quoting "Sex and the City"...the gig is up! That old school bulls#$%. ain't gonna cut it no more, you're seriously about a decade behind. Now, PUT DOWN THE COSMOPOLITAN and tune in to MAX!!!

The source material seems extremely relevant too, "The Girl's Guide to Depravity" isn't just this new cutting-edge MAX original series. It's also in official handbook due out in May 2012, that I for one will be reading. Kinda reminds me of a female version of "I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell" emphasis on FEMALE VERSION. But back to the show, Rebecca Blumhagen (Sam) and Sally Golan (Lizzie) are ridiculously funny and hot, and having adult film star Riley Steele in the supporting cast should only help bring that many more viewers to what is already a great R- rated show.

I have to say I'm a little perturbed by the other reviews comparing The Girls Guide to Depravity to Life on Top. Life on Top? Are you kidding me? That's just a bunch of terrible actresses and an even worse writing crew. Unwatchable. If The Girls Guide is like Life on Top, then Law and Order must be the real people version of Family Guy.

With The Girls Guide, we have the emergence of two fantastic actresses -- Rebecca Blumhagen and Sally Golan. In just the first few episodes, they showed their range, willingness to take risks, and strong comedic timing. They leave you wondering what kind of a person they are in real life...which, in my opinion, is one mark of a great actor. You have to think this is just the beginning for the two of them.

And don't underestimate the writing. It's terrific. The one-liners are laugh-out-loud hilarious. Bottom line -- it's a comedy. And comedy gold, it is.

Watch it. Love it. You'll thank me.

As of this review "The Girl's Guide to Depravity" is two episodes into its premier season. After viewing them both, I can honestly say that the show has a lot of promise. It reminds me of what "Life on Top" was during season one; lighthearted, fun, and sexy. Rebecca Blumhagen and Sally Golan star as Lizzy and Sam, two ladies looking for love (and sex) in Chicago. Ultimately they would like to settle down (Sam more so than Lizzy) but in the interim want to have their fun without involving their feelings. That's where the rules come in.

The ladies are well cast; they are both very pretty, but they are everyday woman beautiful and not Hollywood beautiful. They work and hang out at the bar like everyday people. That adds elements of realism to the show. Couple that with the sex scenes not being overly choreographed. They look like they are just having sex and not trying to put on a production. That can be appreciated in the era of overdone moaning and screaming to simulate sexual satisfaction. Also, the show's setting Chicago is a breath of fresh air in the New York/L.A. dominated TV universe.

Overall, the show is entertaining. I can't wait to see what the rules and their libidos get these ladies into later this season. Kudos to Cinemax for giving its viewers something more than T & A on an After Dark show. I suppose this is their apology for "Chemistry".

This show is shown in acting classrooms around the world as an example of bad acting.
